IT Is MAGINNIS.

Tho Man from Morris Appointed by the
President Receiver of the Duluth Land
Oface.
WARRINGTON, Special Telegram, May 49,
As has frequently been the case in this ad-
ministration, the president has had his way
in spite Of Col. Lamont's declaration that it
would oil be left to Secretary Lamar, and but
one appointment has been made at Duluth.
AS far as that goes, however, the secretary
has had his way, and Charles G. Maginnis of
Morris, the man who was recommended by
him, was appointed receiver to-day.
Whether the secretary will eventually sue
coed in securing q successor to Mr.. Marble
will depend upon how far MI. Sparks in
sists on the vindication of his dignity, and
what fact he can back it up with in present
ing his case to the president. As to. Mr.. Ma
ginnis, his b earliest thanks are due to F. E
Chew of his own town of Morris. Mr.. Chew
has been here for over three weeks working
quietly bu5 presistently for Maginnis. Not
a day has passed that he has not seen the
president, Secretary Lamar, Lamont or the
appointment clerk of the interior depart
ment in the interest Of his friend. He made
a deep impression upon the president, the
secretary and Commissioner Sparks, and his
urgent Endorsement did more than anything
else to secure MI. Maginnnis the place. No
hope was given him, however, and he left
here for home at II o'clock this morning
with 10 certainty that his man would be ap-
pointed. .-..s -
THE APPoINTEE CONGRATULATED. g.
MORRIS, Special Telegram, May $50. c.
Maginnis is receiving hearty telegraphic and
local congratulations upon his appointment
to the receivership of the Duluth land Office.
To the Democrats of the Northwest, it is
held here, this appointment is particularly
pleasing, both on account of his personal
popularity and their high esteem for his
brother, Hon. Martin Maginnis, who they
feel has been sighted by this administration
Mr.. Maginnis' first intimation Of his success
was in a congratulatory telegram from Mr.
Marble. - 49,. >

ence of opinion in regard to some Of
the provisions Of the Interstate rail-
road law, but there is none concern
ing the conduct of those who would
make it as oppressive as possible on
the Lake Shore road, for example, it
has hitherto been the custom to allow
stockholders to pass free over the line
on the day OF the annual election-a
fair enough rule, designed to reduce to
a minimum those inequalities of dis
lance from the place Of meeting which
might prevent the fullest attendance.
Now the order has gone forth from
the headquarters ofthe company that,
ever within the state of Ohio, where
the Interstate act would not apply,
no distinction shall be made between
stockholders and other PERSONS; but
that all alike shall pay fare. This is
the most deliberate Ease of cutting off
ones nose to spite one'sface that has
been witnessed yet as g. fruit OF the
new law. if the railroad companies
were in earnest, and made their COM
plants in good faith, they would try
to reduce, rather than to augment,
the discomforts they suffer. Any 9th
er course leads inevitably to the conclu-
sion that they are making their plight
worse than it need be for the purpose,
not Of testing the law, but OF securing
its condemnation without a fair trial
OF its merits. 2s

peninsula, raging fiercely southwest of this
city, south OF Au Train, east of L'Anse and
southwest OF Baraga. In the vicinity of Ne
gaunee and Ishpeming they are very severe,
burning aIarge tract Of valuable hardwood
timber south. All employees of the Cham
plon mine turned out to light the fire and
save the mine location and cordwood. All
along the highlands of Portage lake, between
the canal and West Hancock, the fire swe pr,
doing heavy damage. The location of the
hancock mine is in imminent dan
ger. Near the Quincy, Franklyn and
Pewabic mines. thousands of cords of wood
have been burned. The wind is strong and
the forest dry. Nothing but speedy and
copious rains can save the peninsula from
oonfagration. News has Just been received
from Camp 3 on the Summit division of the
South Shore extension that the camp is sur
rounded by fire. George Grolet, timber con-
tractor. and eight men, escaped through a
mile OF nre ana smoke, leaving three hrn-
dred Italians in camp fighting for their lives.
Every available dish, including cooking
utensils, was in use. The only available
water was from q well and small creek some
distance away. An attempt made to emove
sick men failed. When the Grolet party
were a short distance away they heard great
shouting and saw big flames, and believe the
camp was burned. 1t is feared that great

The increase in bank clearing house

The increase in bank clearing house
exchanges at all the principal bust
ness points, over corresponding per-
iods OF last year is a matter for con
graduation. The increase in the en-

outside of that point is O. triAe less.
The increase in railroad earnings just
about keeps pace with the increase in

Mr.. O'Brlen Mobbed IN the Streets II toronto.

O'Brien, the Irish a~gitator, had to run.
the gauntlet Of a mob at Toronto from
which he escaped without personal injury.
he was walking in the street with some
friends when the mob showed him and.
1ostled against him making several at
tenpts to strike him on the head with
their sticks. He lodged the blows. how
ever, and his friends rallied around him.
u they were as one to fifty. The
faithful body guard was broken again
and Mr.. O'Brien driven up against the wall.
Here, with Kilbride, Mulligan and Cahill.
the little party stood at bay, Mr.. O'Brieni
shouting at tho top OF his voice: "You,
cowardly dogs, don't you see we are not
armed. Let us alone" Kisses and cries:
dynamiters," CREATED this appeal.
Mr.. O'Brien attempted to take refuge in
sharp's laundry, and, failing III that,
rushed into the bicycle store OF r.. La
Louer adjoining. A volley OF stones shat
tered the windows and the mob burst into
the store, yelling like demons and shower
ering missiles in the direction which Mr..
oBrlen had taken toward the end OF the
store. ~ I@
O'Brien, however, was safely led away
by &C. Casman, an official OF the crown
land department., and reached the hotelin
safety.
Treasurer Teefy, OF the local branch OF,

to the leaders Of the league in New York
and Chicago -.
'O'Brien mobbed in the streets of Toron.e

York Tribune, seriously wounded. Police
Sergeant Adair got a cut in the head,
and when his three comrades saw
this they moved away to safe
distance and let the mobd dc as they pleased.
Upto midnight the neighborhood Of the
Rossin house was filled with the mob, who
groaned and yelled to their hearts content.
but as there was not at any time an OBJ
posing crowd, the rioters grew tired and
hoarse, began to abuse each other and fight
among themselves, and dispersed at last
with cries OF Hang O'Brien," away with !
the traitor" and 'God save the uueen.n
Mr.. O'Brien said to the Associated Press
reporter: 'Lansdowne has now done his
worst. His policemen absolutely surren.

been killed.
